Hello all, well today was my last day working and it was a mix of feelings, I'm so excited and can't wait to be serving our lord in this beautiful communty, but also it's sad to leave my co-workers and the airline that has been my family for several years (I'm a flight attendant), but I will be remembering them always, and my fellow co-workers were SO supportive and it was very neat to see many of their response, our lord is so awesome, for my sharing about my vocation had helped them to open up and talk about their faiths and my pilots last evening were so interested in all of this and were asking me several questions, haha they kept calling me on the itnerphone on the plane and would be like "SO I got some more questions, what's this and this.. etc etc" and it was really great to talk about my future community and my faith (they were not catholic so they were asking about the rosary and such) its' just awesome how our lord works, and I learned many are good catholics and my one gate agent said she used to want to be a nun and when she heard I was entering the convent, she just cried.. and so many of them have just been wonderful and I cried alot when I hugged many of them goodbye.. my supervisor when I was turning in all my stuff, I went to turn in my wings and she said "NO you keep those and remember us always" she's just so sweet and I just will miss my little airline family very much.. they have just all been So incredibly supportive of my vocation and some of them are going to try to make it to my entrance ceremony and will write to me.. and it was kinda a sad feeling to think wow I'm probably never gonna fly again.. or atleast not working the flight... and I did take sometime to enjoy the view from up there... so this was quite an emotional day, but I'm truly greatful to our dear lord for giving me this oppertunity with this wonderful airline!!!

So the rest of my week is going to be busy finalizing everything and getting rid fo what remains in my apartment and spending some time with our dear lord, which I'm So looking foward to ashwenesday mass this eve, it will be my last time to sing in the choir, but I just love ashwenesday and the season of lent!! Well Thanks again for all your prayers!!!

FOUR DAYS!!!!!!!!!

sister!!

And you must be very excited, with you enterance so close!!!

[DiscerningSoul]

My dearest Sister Janet, as the time for your entrance grows nears, please remember that once you go thru those doors, you will be uniting yourself with your future spouse and Lord. Empty yourself of your past and be filled with God's love and kindness.
One thing I ask is for prayer for a little sensitive soul that will always be praying for you.
I will miss our talks together. God Bless you!!!


Your little sister in Christ's name,
Jessica

Dear Phamily,

Thank you for your kindwords, love and support!! (((DISCERNINGSOUL))) thank you that means alot to me and know I will be praying for you and all of our phamily!

Well these past days have been very busy, yesterday my friend and I went to get the remaining of my personal items on my clothing list and one of my parishiners was so kind to donate more shampoo and soap, and I spent my afternoon making final phonecalls as my cellphone service has been disconnected, and then I met with my priest for our last spiritual meeting and he's such a lovely priest, how I"m going to miss him, he's really raised this little soul from the time I first walked through those doors 3 years ago and he's just so excited and can't wait until my entrance ceremony! Then I went with one of my parishiners to a prayer meeting and it was so nice to pray the rosary with all of them and I let them know I"ll be praying for them too!

Today I have been busy getting rid of food and other belongings and giving them to the poor at our st. vincent de paul and my sisters are so kind to take my computer, and haha I told my superior "well if you can't use it, dont' worry I'll just give it to the poor" and she jokes and says "we are poor, so we'd love to have it!" they are just a wonderful group of sisters and I SO can't wait to join them! and in a bit I'm going to meet with my choir director to turn in all of my music, that's gonna be hard as I just love that choir, and then I'm going to sell my car, then go get my hair cut (had planned to do that yesterday but my day was so busy) then going to the stations of the cross and mass and I cant' wait, I LOVE praying the stations!!!

Tomorrow my internet is scheduled to closedown, so I'll be sure to make another post before I go, and know that I"m praying for all of you!!!!!

Well all I'm off now to clean out my car, I will write more later!

Love you all!!!!!!!!!!!

TWO DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear Pia,

Please be assured of my prayers for you!! and Thank you for your many prayers!!

Well all I"m not sure but this might be my last post, I will see if I can borrow my friends computer tomorrow to make one more. but just know that I'm keeping al of you in my prayers and will remember you always, so many of you have enriched my life in so many ways and i"m truly greatful for you!!!

I wanted to let y'all know that my local News Channel FOX is doing a story on my vocation and entrance into the convent, Dan Gray had done an interview on my superior in regards their building project and she had told him about my upcoming entrance and he asked my superior if he could interview me, and so she asked my permission and although I was extrememly nervous, I said I would be glad to help holy mother church and this community adn especially help vocations, so I was interviewed last week and also they got shots of me on the airplane and boarding the passengers, and they will also be at my entrance ceremony.. I am glad to help our lord in this way and if this can help others grow closer to our dear lord, it's worth all the nervousness It was quite an experience I will say, one I truly am greatful for and I wil be praying for this reporter, for he is such a good catholic!

Today I sold my car and the gentleman who bought it was such nice man and he handed me his card and said "now put this under your pillow at mount grace, and you remember to pray for me" and he shared with me stories of his family and how they used to visit the pink sisters when he was younger, truly a wonderful man and I'm so greatful to my Sisters for getting me in touch with him, for he gave me generous amount that has helped my debt Then I went and got my hair cut, and I donated the rest for locks of love and for doing that the hair salon didn't charge me anything so that was a wonderful blessing and hopefully my hair will go to help another person! Then my friend came over to pick up his table and then we went out to dinner to say goodbye, and he is just so happy and can't wait until my ceremony, and I told him I will most definately be praying for him and his family!!

So well things are starting to come together here and I'm so greatful to our dear lord, through some very generous donations I have been able to pay my student loans and other bills and now am free to enter on the 25th in ONE DAY!! and that is such a joy!!! but I thank all of you for your many many prayers and my dear friends St. Joseph and the blessed Mother, for all of your prayers have helped this all happen, and I'm truly truly greatful!

Well I will rest now, I continue to pray for all of you!!!!

ONE MORE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!
